Out of Home Care/ Permanency Support Program (Foster Care)

Description

The CDS OOHC/PSP module has a function to track key placement changes or movements and can also provide sophisticated data reports for your State Government’s needs . This module also provides real time information to inform decisions that  are critical to the stability of the placement and safely and well being of the CYP in the placement. This module facilitates state government reporting requirements and in NSW the module allows for the management of carer payments. We are currently working on managing budgeting requirements for funds of children within the foster care system.

The module can also help you manage mandatory training and reporting including Risk of Harm Reports (ROSH). It is designed to provide a multidisciplinary and comprehensive approach for a team of staff working collaboratively to manage all workflow issues between Authorised Carers and the CYP. The module includes data collection and retrieval on training, induction, recruitment and placement matching opportunities.
